THE OPIUM LICENSE.

The Act of last session OF the Ha-
waiian Legislature, Ito regulate the
importation and sale Of opium" was
passed to law at every stage contrary to
the we'll understood sentiment Of a
majority Of the better classes Of the
community. 1t was transparent job
Of the worst kind, and nobody doubts
for moment that il goes into effect
now as verse job. The opium
law Just called into action by the grant
ing Of a license offers premium to
the most atrocious corruption in differ
ent quarters. All the kahunas and
quacks in the land may coin money
under this law by manufacturing certih.
Gates ''that opium is the proper remedy
for the disease from which the bearer
is suffering" Indeed, if the licensee
is going to make his own out Of the
business he will almost require to keep
staff Of physicians" constantly EN-
ployed in making out certificates. Then,
as the buyer Of the opium has to keep
his certificate to protect himself from
the police in the use of the drug, there
is nothing to hinder the licensee from
selling opium every day in the year to
one person on single certificate. One
certificate, moreover, may enable
hundred persons to indulge in the
drug in rotation without detection, for,
in such place as the Chinese Theatre,
for instance, hundred different
smokers may take their respective
turns at the lamp, each one holding
the certificate till he smokes himself
senseless, and the police not know
whether he is the person named in the
certificate or not. Again, there is
nothing to prevent the holder OF GER
tifcate from replenlshing the container
bearing the revenue stamp over and
over again with smuggled opium. In
fact, the law leaves open innumerable
avenues for fraud. There is every in
ducement for the holder Of the license
to wink at illicit retailing OF his goods,
for his monopoly is costly one. He
has to pay 10000 a year for his four
years license, has to give bond in
$4,000 with one surety that he will
observe the provisions OF the law, has
to pay fifteen per cent duty on the
opium imported and an additional tax
of one dollar per half-pound tin for a
stamp. The penalties under the Act
are fine Of not more than $4,000 nor
less than Sic and imprisonment at
hard labor not more than ten years nor
less than two years. However, the Act
is now in force and the Kingdom will
soon have the question Of prohibition
or license tested with regard to opium.

Cook County Abstracts.

CHIcAGo, Jan. George P. Barton
filed bill in chancery praying for an in
junction as taxpayer TO restrain the re-
corder of Cook county from carrying on the
abstract business, as it was not authorized
by law. He claimed the office was not
paying expenses and was compelled to draw
funds from the taxes collected to keep up
the business. The county recorder denied
this, and said the business had been con-
Quoted at profit. Judge Shepherd,
in a decision given to-day, said it
did not seem to him that the county
board was vested with the authority to dele
gate to the recorder any such powers as
those complained of. Experience taught
that it was best to keep public servants
strictly in the exercise of the powers com-
mitted to them, and it was dangerous to
extend their powers. The legislature could
have. and may yet give, the recorder au-
thority in few plain words. He. there
fore. enjoined the recorder from making
abstracts of title. This leaves the business
of abstract making entirely in the hands OF
the private abstract of title firms.

The Indian Commission.

Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-When Judge
Wellbon called up the Indian appropria-

moved an amendment to the yearly appro-
priatiOn for the Indian commission engaged
in securing the consent of the Indians to
the reduction of their reservations, so as to
make it apply to the Crow reservations in
Montana. MI. Nelson opposed this. and
claimed that the bill already included the
Crows. After some explanation it was
agreed that this was the purpose of the
bill, and Col. Toole withdrew the amend
ment. This authorizes the commission to
treat with the Sioux for reduction of their
reservation.
II did not ask" said Col. Toole, speaking
of the matter, Ito have any more money D.
priated for the commission. The amount re-
mains Sl0,000 as it was last year, but asked
to have something done to throw that big
Crow reservation open to whites. We have
1,5G0,000 cattle in Montana, and our ranges in
the older parts of the territory are being
overstocked. We must have our cattle eating
grass on some of the large Indian reserva-
tons. or we shall have a good many dead
cattle to report another year.

at the Office OF the company in this city were
met by the response that any such
movement must originate on the other side

known in regard to it here. DIR. Norvin
Green, president of the Western Union
Telegraph company. which is interested in
the cable pool, said that the French cable
was in the pool under explicit contract, and
he did not believe it could get out. Its

YANkToN, Oak, Jan. 5.-The trustees
of the hospital for insane in this city will
ask the legislature for an appropriation of
$40, 600 to build an addition to the building.
The capacity of this institution is 120 pa
tients, yet there are now LA inmates, and
further applications are being refused
unless an old patient is removed to make
room for the new one. AS a natural con-
sequence, several South Dakota counties
are obliged to care for their insane, con-
finning them in prisons and jails at much
greater cost than for what they could be
properly cared for III the asylum if room
could be found for them. The North Da-
kota asylum for insane is in the same
condition, and the legislature must respond
literally or the territorys insane will be-
come a county charge. AS it is if appro-
priations are made, it will be twelve months
before buildings can be completed for the
accommodation of patients, and during that
time ii is estimated, on the basis of the in
crease OF the past twelve months. that the
territory will then have 210 insane patients
upon its hands. for which there is no
accommodation.
